What happens when leaders give followers advice? Most don’t follow it. You give a lot of advice and readily answer questions and tell followers what to do. Unfortunately, when you tell followers what to do, you keep followers from learning, and this creates an unnatural dependency upon you to provide all the answers. You can learn The ART of Asking Great Questions that move work forward and engage followers.

At this lab, you will learn how to:

• Articulate the “what” and the “how” in when coaching employees.
• Remove the criticism that comes from giving advice.
• Transform workplace relationships and culture to improve engagement.
